LUTHER BADMAN KEITH DEBUTING NEW SONGS IN UPCOMING SHOWS

DETROIT- Award-wining bluesman Luther Badman Keith will be debuting new songs from his upcoming CD in shows this summer, including Saturday, July 18th at the Harbour House, downtown Detroit's new home of the blues.

The songs will be from 16 all new tracks from his forthcoming CD which he expects to release in the fall.

"I will still do my old originals that people love, but I also want to give them a flavor of what I will be coming out with on the new CD," said Keith, a Detroit Music Award winner for outstanding blues songwriting. "Some of the songs will be funny, some serious, all will have grooves that will make you feel good, make you dance. Blues, rock, soul and funk. We throw it all in there. We're inviting everybody to come out."

The Harbour House is located at 440 Clinton near Gratiot. Phone 313-967-9900. The show wills start at 9:30 p.m.

The Badman man will return to one of his familiar haunts on Friday June 19 at Nancy Whiskey's, on Harrision at Spruce near the old Tiger Stadium.

"Nancy Whiskey's is always a great party," Keith said. "We always see old friends and make new ones."

On Sunday, June 28th, Keith will make a special solo acoustic appearance at the return of the Palmer Park Art Fair. Keith will perform at 3 p.m. near the duck pond.

"I've done some solo shows before. They are challenging but fun," Keith said. "People really get to focus on the lyrics of the songs. It will be a different kind of treat for my fans and for me."

Keith's last CD, Thunder In My Blues, was released in 2003 and was nominated for a Detroit Music Award for Outstanding Blues Recording. Keith's first CD, released in 1999, was the self-titled Badman,.

Keith won the 2007 Detroit Music Award for Outstanding Blues Songwriter.
